Perfectly Complete

Today's Scripture

"Be confident of this. He who began a good work in you will continue to perform it until it's perfectly complete" (Philippians 1:6).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

Do you have dreams that have not yet come to pass? Are there promises that you are standing on in your health, finances, or relationships? Know this: God is a god of completion. He wants to finish what He's started in your life. No matter how long you've been praying, don't let the enemy tempt you into thinking that it's never going to happen. Be encouraged today because God is called the Author and the Finisher of your faith. That means He's working behind the scenes on your behalf. Anything He begins, any dream He puts in your heart, He is well-able to finish. Stand strong on this promise. Be confident even when it looks like it's not going to happen. No matter how long it takes, stay in faith and keep your hopes up because God has promised to finish the good work He's started in your life!

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, thank you for your promise to complete what you've started in my life. Thank you for your faithfulness and for showing me your goodness. Give me strength to stand strong so that I can experience your fulfillment in my life today. I love you. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
